Starting [Over]

It feels
just a little bit like my first day
in 7th grade
except i knew people back then.

now everybody's
a stranger
and everything's
unfamiliar

and i can't find the
guts
to walk up and just say
"hi."
in this place where everybody
is starting over.

so i'll keep my cool
and try not to
hyperventilate
and
hopefully
i'll find my courage again
